In terms of commuting, 20 minutes is my threshold for starting counting the minutes. Anything up to 20 minutes is zero in my mind. I used to commute 90 minutes via public transport. Twice daily. Did I read a lot? Sure. It still was a nightm

And yet, Kodak managed to tune the gamma curve of their film stock to be more flattering to dark objects due to pressure from the chocolate and furniture industries. 15 stops of dynamic range are plenty, by the way.

It's not about fun, it's about what kind of activities cause addiction. You were addicted because when you played there was a chance of getting a high, but it wasn't certain. A certain high would not be as addictive, if at al

On the flipside, if you have problems with premature ejaculation, taking one of those might mitigate the issue. Not a doctor, by the way.

In the German dub those black guys had to speak in some unintelligible dialect, but of course there's no such thing as German jive. So they made them talk in a very thick Bavarian dialect, which made the whole thing absurd on a higher

I just looked up my last name and found a World class heavyweight weightlifter named Josef Grafl born in 1872 who has an awesome portrait of him on Wikipedia. Never before have I read about that man. I love this.

Can someone explain to me why I should care about drug prices when they're covered by medicare (as a private person and an American, which I am not, thus asking). As an Austrian I don't know what my meds cost. I pay a flat fee of

That sucks. This kind of behavior should be monitored and have consequences till it stops.

This project feels more like a lover-letter to me than an attempt to compete against other operating systems. I really dig it, although I don't expect to ever use it productively. And I love that the development is documented on YouTub

I don't understand why your comment has been downvoted. I'm European and was wondering the exact same thing.

As a European I would never have thought that any of those places are real.

I hate that I ever heard about this movie. I hope no one who reads your comment will look it up.

It's bad storytelling. In stories you break up routines by introducing characters and problems which then eventually get reintegrated. If a big part of the story cancels out during reintegration it doesn't feel right and the endin

Lucky you if you manage to break stuff in a way that's immediately observable!

It doesn't. I wish they would have called it Super Password, which I just thought up and makes more sense while hopefully not offending anyone.

Good point. My first language is German and I've never been able able to warm up to English title case. There's no such thing in German that I'm aware of.

Great comment, but I wouldn't throw out strength training that quickly. Some people are more motivated to do strength exercises than cardio, for whatever reason. And there are types of strength training that get your heart rate up as w

The world is not software. That's a silly catchphrase. You can't code meaning, joy, health, or good company into someone's life. Software won't provide company and solace to a dying patient or make you feel blissed out w

Yes. It's a bad sign that it had come to this in the first place.

Part of the problem might be that we didn't evolve to live in groups of people as big as in big cities, so getting angry with strangers in the streets might be the result of not being adapted to that environment. Now that I think of it

Man, I quit drinking coffee 48 hours ago because of bad side effects. This is not helping.

I don't think any kind of advice will help a severely depressed person. As a former severely depressed person myself, the top priority should be to hold onto life till you feel barely good enough to get professional help.

Not sure what you mean by average consumer gear, but when I'm performing, anything higher than a 15ms round-trip latency is starting to have a negative effect on my ability to play tightly. I can do with more latency, but that's t

Theft is an abstract concept, and paying taxes simply doesn't reflect the meaning of that word. Paying taxes is a result of the legislation we've indirectly put into action by voting our people into office. Robin Hood acted out of
